Default DECs getting training priority?

How many DECs do we have? Are they getting training priority? I hear another sim is now up?

I was told they want 32 DECS. As of last week they had hired 5. Not forsure on delayed but I was told they’ll likely fast track any DEC’s through school

We were told multiple times that DECs are getting training priority. I mean, it only makes sense with a for-profit airline. For the rest of us, it's projected to be a 2-3 month wait for systems with a 2 week or less wait for sims. I'm not gonna complain because when else in my life will I get a couple months of paid vacation with AA flight benefits?

Wow, can I leave PSA before my forced captain upgrade and get hired there as an FO? Are you back in training now, or still waiting behind the DEC's?

There's no way you're waiting two weeks or less for sims in the near future. I waited 7, and the majority of my class has yet to be called.
